I totally do that.
I don't particularly mind about misuse of decimation, but as soon as you attach any number to it (aside from, you know, ten) you've crossed the line from casual misuse into wrongity wrong wrong.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yay! I probably missed a discussion about this while I was away. Is it something that's been in the works for a while?

Allyson, where on your body did you get it?

Can't wait to see it!
I'm trying to remain not angry this week, but:
1. Grace's GI ordered for her to get all of her food over an hour instead of over 2+ which is what is going on. The advantage is that it's more normal for her to get a bolus feed and also she can get more time not attached to something. The doctor on this week at TK has said to not change her feeding order. GRRR. hulk smash.
2. Kids want out of my class because it's too hard (fair enough). Their parents enable them because they just "want their kid to be happy." One called the school board (!!) and the school board member said to move them out of AP. Seriously?
3. So the solution to #2 is that they have renamed my class from AP to Honors for this one child whose parent's complained. But she is remaining in the same class and expected to do the same work. So, essentially she'll do the same work and get LESS credit.
4. There is no way we are ready for academic decathlon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Holy crap.
